The Golden Thread of Hope [CD]

PLEASE NOTE:This programisalso includedas Part 1 of the larger set A Transition in Perspective (CD/3m172dl).

This workshop was given on October 9, 2010 at the Foundation in Temecula. A Course in Miracles asks us to trust that despite the ego’s moribund thread of hopelessness and death, there remains in our minds the golden thread of Atone­ment that weaves its way through our lives, patiently awaiting our decision to identify with it. This shift in “threads” is a change of mind about our inner teacher—from the ego to the Holy Spirit—that reflects the transition from despair to hope, unkindness to kindness. It lifts us from earth to Heaven in a rising melody of forgiveness that leads us home to the Thought that created us like Itself:

He has not left His Thoughts! He could no more depart from them than they could keep Him out. In unity with Him do they abide, and in Their Oneness Both are kept complete. There is no road that leads away from Him. A journey from yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to think that there could be a road with such an aim! Where could it go? And how could you be made to travel on it, walking there without your own reality at one with you?
